God and His Final Messenger - Seerah 2 (Level 3)

Quran has made the obedience of Prophet Muhammad a condition for loving God and receiving love and forgiveness from Him (3:31). A hadith narrated by Anas ibn Malik implies that loving Prophet Muhammad reflects one's perfection of faith (Sahih Al-Bukhari 15, Muslim 44). Loving God and His messenger and obeying them is part of our religion. However, can we claim a deep and sincere love for someone without knowing the person? This two-part course endeavors to introduce God and His final messenger by studying the messenger's life on earth, also known as Seerah. Through this course, we will learn how his life was a true depiction of the Quranic teachings, how he lived, and how God manifested His being, commands, and practices through His final messenger. The content of this course is drawn from the Quran and other authentic sources. This course focuses on the life of Prophet Muhammad in Medinah till his departure from this earth, also known as the Medinan period.
